Well the World Series is tied at 1 game each. They go to St. Louis and play Tuesday... all I can say is GO CARDS!!!!!!!! The Cards will take it in St. Louis... GO CARDS, GO CARDS, GO CARDS!!!!!!!!!

Just wanted to let ya'll know that after today I will probably be positng at night. The corporate guys had a bright idea to take all the cubes down and have "open office". Talk about distracting. I sneezed this morning and one of the girls was on the phone with her boyfriend and his comment was "bless you"... he actually heard me sneeze... we all laughed.

And for today a few pet rules....

To be posted VERY LOW on the refrigerator door - nose height.

Dear Dogs and Cats,

The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The otherdishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in theslightest.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack.Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.

For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through thesame door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years, canine or feline attendance is not mandatory.

The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough! To pacify you, my dear pets, I have posted the following message on our front door:

To All Non-Pet Owners Who Visit & Like to Complain About Our Pets

1. They live here. You don't.2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes , stay off the furniture. (That's why they call it "fur"niture.)3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.4. To you, it's an animal. To me, he/she is an adopted son/daughter who is short, hairy, walks on all fours and doesn't speak clearly.

Remember: Dogs and cats are better than kids because they:

1. Eat less2. Don't ask for money all the time3. Are easier to train4. Usually come when called5. Never drive your car6. Don't hang out with drug-using friends7. Don't smoke or drink8. Don't worry about having to buy the latest fashions9. Don't wear your clothes10. Don't need a gazillion dollars for college, and11. If they get pregnant, you can sell their children.

Love the last list and true --except --Chloe is a booze hound. We have to tell anyone who comes over that they cannot leave any drink at dog level. She'll drink anything--must be cause previous owners sold her children ---buhwahahahahaha

Oh and you can put your dogs and cat in cages and not get in too much trouble

I'll probably be ex communicated from the Soul Patrol when I say this but: "I don't like dogs". I like cats, I had one.

Dogs scare me, they scare my daughter too. I have to often put myself between her and a dog, she freaks out to the point where she'll run into the street. So meanwhile, I'm the one at risk of getting bit.

Lol - you must have been at my house. The dogs ALWAYS get the good seats. Of course, with Daisy, that is invariably on my lap. Try and watch tv with an 85 lb. dog on your lap ... and recently, she has started fitting herself onto Brennan's lap. Except, she doesn't fit ... she outweighs him by more than 40 lbs.

;-) I knew you would like Duckmaster outfit #2 Turn... wait until tomorrow... LMOO

Busy - it's okay that you don't like dogs... there is no way in hell that you would EVER be excommunicated from the Soul Patrol. Remember your the Queen Mother..

Coco... I bet Brennan like the puppy trying to sit on his lap.. LMOO

Bond - I didn't say they were ALL going to be baseball uniforms... it's a variety... ;-)

From the mind of Meribah:

LOL! Love the Pet Rules!!! My dog wants to be with me all the time, and if I go to the bathroom, she insists on sitting outside and waiting until I come out. Silly little critter! LOL Oh, and she likes to try and beat me to the bottom of the stairs too...but sometimes, I don't let her! Heeheehee.

Meri - sounds like you and your dog have a blast... i love both dogs and cats... right now we only have 5 cats... 2 inside and 3 outside. I am wanting a dog, but don't think it will get along with the outside cats.

Ummmmmmm Dana.... at least you left leg might fit. Neither one of mine would fit... LMOO

*considers therapy*
